"Nineteen-year-old Staten Kirkland was studying at Texas Tech when he got the news that the grandfather who raised him, J.R. Kirkland, was fighting for his life. Now Staten would have to leave college behind, not to mention the girl he loved. And he'd have to grow up overnight. More than that, he'd have to become a boss--THE boss--running thousands of acres of ranch. He'd always hated change. But change was barreling toward him... Rootless and stuck in the dull routine that was her life, college professor Charlotte Lane escaped into fiction. But now she was restless for a change--in the form of being the new high school teacher at the small town bordering Ransom Canyon...Peggy Warner came last in every way, not even worth sending to college. Now 27, she's never left home and lives in service to her aging parents and her married siblings' growing families. But she still has dreams--and under the big sky overlooking Ransom Canyon they may come true"-- Provided by publisher.
